As someone who has seen the movies before I read the books I have to say, the reason I like them so much, is that they are so different and more reasonable than the movies. I don't have the experience people have when they read the books, not knowing what is going to happen. Despite most people saying it lacks a good ending or it is structured poorly, I enjoyed every part of it. Especially because I hate the ending in the 3rd movie, although I think the endin in the book makes way more sense.

So if you have seen the movies and you want to know how the actual story goes, you should read it. Otherwise I guess you might be disappointed.
